Fender Select Stratocaster HSS Exotic Maple Flame (Bing Cherry Burst) Overview
The Fender Select Stratocaster® HSS Exotic Maple Flame guitar certainly lives up to its name, with an atypical and highly distinctive wood figure in its flame maple top. No two instruments are identical, and the swirling, almost marbled quality of the flame wood figure is highlighted to even more beautiful effect by the guitar's satin nitro-lacquer finish in Bing Cherry Burst. An exotic creation indeed, it launches the Fender Select series into 2014 with more style and performance than ever, including a striking "channel-bound" birds-eye maple fingerboard with a compound radius (9.5"-14"). This inlaid fingerboard design imparts an elegant appearance and an amazingly comfortable fretting-hand feel in which both edges are pleasingly rounded, with no side seam between neck and fingerboard.Other premium features include a comfortably contoured neck heel on the alder body, rosewood neck with thick "modern C" profile and hand-rubbed oil finish, 21 medium jumbo frets and black pearloid inlays, single-coil Fender Select Stratocaster guitar neck and middle pickups, Twin-Head Vintage humbucking bridge pickup, five-way switching, three-ply parchment pickguard and aged white control knobs, Bi-FlexGäó truss rod system, two-point synchronized tremolo bridge with bent steel saddles, deluxe staggered tuners, Micro-TiltGäó neck adjustment and Fender Select headstock medallion. Includes Fender Select tweed case, guitar strap, cable and polishing cloth.
